Brown Sugar Rhubarb Pie image

***NOTE: I do NOT recommend making this at this time! An attempt to make this myself came out horribly wrong, and I'm certain it wasn't me. I need to do some research and see if I can fix this recipe. When I do, I will correct it and remove this note.**** A delicious pie; the only pie I've ever had where I actually liked the meringue! The filling is a sort of custardy texture that goes very well with the meringue topping. Prep time is estimated.

1 cup packed brown sugar
